You’ve all probaly seen the video of Alec Baldwin casually making a joke about getting a mail order bride from the Philippines. If not, here it is:
I dunno about you but I LOLed. Not much. But yeah, I thought it was funny.
Well apparently, Senator Bong Revilla didn’t. His reaction:
“Alec Baldwin’s recent statement that he is thinking about getting a mail-order bride from the Philippines is truly insensitive and uncalled for. For him, it is funny but to the millions of Filipinos, it is mockery. Bad joke, not worth laughing.”
“Kung pagbabatayan natin ang pagiging arogante ni Alec Baldwin, kahit sino pa ang magiging bride nito, malamang na mamalasin. Subukan niyang pumunta dito sa Pilipinas nang maghalo ang balat sa tinalupan.”

Wow. Very classy Mr. senator. Thank you for taking it upon yourself to play the indignant protector. Thank you for making us look like a country of pathetic, oversensitive people devoid of a sense of humor.
